"Ugh...Where is Y/n?"Sasha questioned while staring at the ceiling.
"I miss her."Ran said,repeating Sasha's action.Sasha turned her head to him with a glare.
"You what?"She asked through gritted teeth.
"I miss her."Ran said again.Sasha jumped on top of him and put her hands around his neck,strangling him.Ran put his hands on top of hers to stop her."S-Sasha-"
"You little ugly shit!Never in your life say that agai-"
"Wow."You managed to say after seeing the two in that position.You just got downstairs from Mikey's office.He finished eating and you were holding the empty tray.The two turned their heads at you and widened their eyes.
Sasha immeditely got down from Ran."Its not what you think it is,babe."She assured and you just smiled.
"Yes...She was actually trying to kill me."Ran spoke.Sasha punched him in the stomach which made him groan in pain.You just chuckled and walked to the kitchen to wash the plates off.
"Dont worry about the dishes...We have maids who take care of that."Sanzu said.You widened your eyes and turned your head to him.
"Since when are you here?Werent you supposed to be on a mission?"
"I was...But I came back...And I am here to drink some water..."He responded and you nodded.He smiled at you."So...How is life around so many idiots?"He asked.You and Sanzu didn't talk that much ever since your encounter with Mr Sato.You were mostly on missions with other members,so you haven't gotten much time to speak.He was a fun person to be around tho.
"I would not say that they are idiots...Sounds pretty mean."You said and he chuckled.

"Don't worry,they aren't that sensitive."He assured."But tell me...You said you are a prosecutor,right?"Sanzu asked and you nodded.
"Yes,indeed."
"Is it hard?"
"Depends on what you mean by hard..."You answered.
"I mean...Do you have to do alot of work?"
"Well...You have to use your mind,not fighting skills...Thats what's mostly about."
"Aha..."He nodded."That sounds boring."
"It is fun tho..."You shrugged.
"I have another question."
"Go ahead."You smiled at him.
"Where did you learn that method of yours?"You frowned.
"What method?"
"The one that you used on Mr Sato...With the kid games and all that."
"Oh...I just came up with it in the moment and decided to use it from then on."You simply said and shrugged."But why are you asking?"
"Have you heard about The Puppet Killer?"He questioned.
"Oh yeah...Everyone knows about them."
"They use the same technique as yours."He said and you widened your eyes.He did the same."I am not saying that you are them,no no no...Dont get the wrong idea...Is just...No one other than them uses that technique of torture...At least I don't know anyone other than them."He said.
"Well...You are kinda right here."
"You know...Everyone in this gang knows who The Puppet Killer is."Sanzu whispered.You looked at him with a frown.
"They do?"
"Mhm..."
"How so?"You questioned and he chuckled.
"Back in our teenage years in middle school...There was this girl..."
"And that is~"You said with suspense.
"Sakura Hasegawa."You nodded."She was an year or two younger than most of us.She was part of Toman,Mikey's former gang and later on part of Rokuhara Tandai a rival gang of Kantou Manji Gang.She was known as one of the best fighters in Tokyo.We all knew who she was.She had short deep blue hair and bangs and was always wearing a black surgical mask.She was short,shorter than Mikey at that time."Sanzu informed.

"Tell me more."
He chuckled."She was the only girl in Toman and the members often underestimated her because you know...'Girls are weak'"He rolled his eyes."She proved them wrong.She never talked much,but was very stubborn.Just like Mikey.She and him got along very well.I am not even surprised."He smiled and so did you."Kantou Manji Gang and Rokuhara Tandai were rivals among with another gang.She decided to join Rokuhara instead of Kantou Manji Gang,which shocked everyone since she and Mikey were pretty close.At that time the Haitani brothers were part of the gang too.They and Sakura seemed close."
"Were they together or something?"
"What?No.I mean...I don't think so..."You nodded."There was this fight between all the three gangs.Mikey won and the other two gangs became part of Kantou Manji Gang.Mikey's goal was to take Sakura back,but when the time to introduce the new members came,she was nowhere to be seen.He asked the Haitani's where she was and they said she just ran off.Of course we were panicked and tried to search for her,but she was nowhere to be seen.After an year or so,horrible crimes started happening."
"Oh...The Puppet killer."
"Mhm...I think you know why they got that name."You nodded.
"But how do you know The Puppet Killer is Sakura?"You questioned.
"When she was in Toman,she used to gift us puppets...But not normal puppets.Puppet dolls made by herself.And yes,it was a very cute gift...But she had a signature style of making the dolls...It was the same as the ones The Puppet Killer left at the scene.I know it might sound crazy,but I am 100% sure,same as the others in Bonten,that Sakura is the killer."Sanzu informed.
"But still...How does that make me and them related?"
"Sakura loved kids games while in middle school.She will make all of us play her weird games,but we never complained because she was a nice girl.But since you are a prosecutor,I think you heard about that one girl that escaped from the Puppet Killer"
"Oh yeah...I heard about her."
"She said that the killer makes them play kids games and through those games she makes the victims mutilate themselves."Sanzu whispered and you nodded.
"Honestly...That idea is pretty cool if you ask me."
"I mean...Never said it wasn't...But I was just wondering..."
"If you were The Puppet Killer."

ROACH- rising pestilence
A weary mind awakens in an unfamiliar body, lost, confused, scared, and very far from home. He doesn't know where he is, he isn't sure what he may become, and his stomach growls hungrily. But he knows one thing. He must feed and he isn't too bothered on how, only when. Through his struggles to survive trying to take his place in this world. It, the world will be forever changed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My first story here so let's do it! hopefully with flying colors. (This story is not about an insect that goes on an edgelord, death rampage, so those who came for that, know now what you are reading and stop rating down thx, still, some murder and mayhem is involved) Feel free to critique, I will be checking on reviews and comments every now and then to see what others think of my writing and how I might adjust it in the future. (although I'm also doing this for fun so don't get your knickers in a twist if things don't change to your liking). (Know that even if you comment/review that doesn't mean I will respond or that I will take your advice, after all, I too have my own preferences). A chapter tends to come out every fortnight, however sometimes it may be sooner or later, It depends on how lazy I'm feeling or how busy I am. Ps. A friend of mine drew the cover art, appreciate its homebrew goodness. PPs. serious readers may want to read the author's notes as well. PPPs. If you rate down please say why, I want info, not merely ratings that don't tell me anything, preferably in comments, so I can try to best satisfy my audience, or at the very least understand their reasons.

Maybe it's just stress relief or trying to have fun but this one is one step closer to writing a little better.You might find words that have mistaken letters in them or grammarbut I'm pretty confident in my english although it's not my main language.Lastly I would like to say report that the novel will have Mature contentof the worst sort, so please refrain from reading it unless you are an adult.
